​Additional Linux Installation Notes

By default, Linux prevents writing to certain types of USB devices such as the AudioMoth. In order to use either of these applications you must first navigate to /lib/udev/rules.d/ and create a new file with the name 99-audiomoth.rules:

> cd /lib/udev/rules.d/

> sudo gedit 99-audiomoth.rules

Then enter the following text:



If you have trouble running the .AppImage executable, right click the file and ensure that it has permission to run as a program.

You can either keep the .AppImage in a memorable location and run it from there every time, or integrate it into your system. To do this, first install AppImageLauncher and then run each app. You will be given the choice to either run as normal or integrate it into your applications menu.
